The Road Not Taken

What happened on the crossroads... Four roads diverged in front of me, And sorry I could not travel all So as a traveller, long I stood And looked down to one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; But I took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and free of wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same. And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Four roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference! . ..My version of the poem by Robert Frost.

On the Crossroads, Again!

Once more I'm at the crossroads, Looking where to go, Deciding which is a better road, No signposts to follow. I'm not confused, just wondering, What I should do, what is best. I know that God will guide me, But I really wish I knew What path I should follow, The life I ought to make, the fruits I will gather, The risks I have to take. Should my mind or my feelings lead the way? My feelings pull me strongly, But my mind has more to say. I should follow faith, Because that I'm certain, God has a big plan, And I'm in the center of it. Once more at the crossroads, Lord where should I go? Every path a mystery, No signposts that I know. Help me God, guide me, I do not know the way. You are the one true shepherd Please lead me through today. My version of the poem by Terence Toolan .
